The fund totalling just over £8m, was set up in July to help support the national rough sleeping strategy 'Vision to end rough sleeping: No Second Night Out nationwide' and is being distributed to 41 projects in England.

Provided by DCLG and administered by Homeless Link, the Fund received 190 applications from homelessness charities for funding. 

Commenting, Sharon Allen, Chair of the Fund's Grants Panel said:

"The quality of applications and demand for help was extremely high. I am pleased that these grants will help protect essential services and develop new, more effective ways to stop people living on our streets."
